  Bodegas Gutierrez Colosia Cream 75 cl 18%

  Item no.: 22227222-893

  Cream sherry is a hybrid - an Oloroso joined by sweet Pedro Ximénez, and the result is a sherry that unites two opposite worlds in one glass.

  Expert's Description

  Bodegas Gutierrez Colosia Cream is a Sherry from El Puerto de Santa María, Spain made from a blend of Palomino and Pedro Ximénez, bottled at 18% ABV.

  The wine is originally produced as an Oloroso, then sweetened with Pedro Ximénez, giving it its round, creamy character. The Cream sherry concept was originally developed for the English market, which preferred a sweeter style than the dry Spanish classics.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Concentration from the Oloroso combined with Pedro Ximénez that stirs the senses.

  Palate

  Rich, sweet and intense.

  Finish

  A lovely sweet finish with a fine length.

  Serving & Food Pairing

  Serve chilled in a small dessert glass. Pairs with sweet treats like caramel cake or nutty desserts.

  Bodegas Gutierrez Colosia Oloroso 75 cl 18%

  Item no.: 22227222-891

  Oloroso is sherry's powerful counterpart to the light Fino - no flor layer, longer cask ageing and a depth that calls for an entirely different glass to enjoy properly.

  Expert's Description

  Bodegas Gutierrez Colosia Oloroso is a Sherry from El Puerto de Santa María, Spain made from the Palomino grape, bottled at 18% ABV.

  Unlike Fino, Oloroso is aged without the protective flor layer, allowing controlled oxidation and a deeper, more concentrated flavour. Despite its bone-dry style, the wine feels rich and creamy, with toasted aromas and a hint of orange peel that only comes with long cask ageing.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Toasted aromas and orange peel, with depth and intensity.

  Palate

  Full and dense, with a remarkable creamy concentration despite the dry style.

  Finish

  Good and persistent length.

  Serving & Food Pairing

  Serve in large white wine glasses at 13-14°C. Pairs with strong, aged cheeses or air-dried ham.

  Specifications

  Name: Oloroso

  Flavour Profile

  Bone-dry · Creamy · Nutty · Intense

  Did You Know?

  Oloroso means "fragrant" in Spanish - a slightly misleading name, since where Fino is all about freshness, Oloroso is about depth, strength and an intensity that develops over many years in cask.

  Bodegas Gutierrez Colosia Sherry Fino 75 cl 15%

  Item no.: 22227222-888

  Fino is sherry's white wine - a dry, pale and light style that lives off the flor yeast in the cask and drinks best while still young and fresh.

  Expert's Description

  Bodegas Gutierrez Colosia Sherry Fino is a Sherry from El Puerto de Santa María, Spain made from the Palomino grape, bottled at 15% ABV.

  The Fino is carried by the flor yeast, which settles as a protective layer on top of the wine during ageing and prevents oxidation, giving it its characteristic freshness and pale colour. This is a classic, handcrafted Fino from one of El Puerto's respected sherry houses.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Sharp and yeasty with a hint of almond.

  Palate

  Refreshingly dry and delicate.

  Finish

  Short to medium, clean and crisp.

  Serving & Food Pairing

  Serve chilled, ideally straight from the fridge, in a sherry glass. Pairs with smoked trout, salmon, oysters, caviar and fresh prawns, or as an aperitif with green olives and salted almonds.

  Did You Know?

  The flor yeast that gives Fino its character dies if exposed to too high an alcohol strength - that's why Fino is only fortified to around 15%, while drier styles like Oloroso can go all the way up to 20%.

  Bodegas Gutierrez Colosia Sherry Moscatel Soleado 75 cl 16,5%

  Item no.: 22227222-889

  Moscatel is the second of the sherry triangle's sweet sun-dried grapes - less famous than Pedro Ximénez, but with its own fresh, grapey sweetness.

  Expert's Description

  Bodegas Gutierrez Colosia Sherry Moscatel Soleado is a Sherry from El Puerto de Santa María, Spain made from 100% Moscatel grapes, bottled at 16.5% ABV.

  Soleado means "sun-drenched" and refers to the grapes being sun-dried before pressing, which concentrates the sweetness. Unlike PX sherry's deep raisin character, Moscatel has a fresher, more grapey and aromatic profile, with a lively acidic edge that gives the wine backbone.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Golden mahogany colour with a sweet and intense aroma.

  Palate

  Rich, sweet and intense, with a lively acidic edge.

  Finish

  Sweet with a fresh, fruity finish.

  Serving & Food Pairing

  Serve chilled, ideally straight from the fridge, in a small dessert glass. Pairs with ice cream, chocolate cake, fruit tarts or good cheeses.

  Lustau Fino En Rama de Jerez 2024 Spring Release Sherry Jerez Spanien 50 cl 15%

  Item no.: 2222-55789

  Every spring, when the flor layer in Lustau's barrels reaches its peak, the cellar master selects the best casks from each of the sherry triangle's three towns and bottles them unfiltered. This Fino comes from Jerez itself.

  Expert's Description

  Lustau Fino En Rama de Jerez 2024 Spring Release is a Sherry from Jerez, Spain made from the Palomino grape, bottled at 15% ABV.

  En Rama means "on the branch" and refers to sherry bottled straight from the cask without fining or filtration. Lustau is the only house to make three different En Rama sherries - one from each town of the sherry triangle, Jerez, Sanlúcar and El Puerto - to show how each town's microclimate shapes the sherry under the biological layer of flor yeast. This edition is from Jerez itself and is released every spring, when the flor layer is at its thickest.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Sharp and yeasty, with almond and a hint of green olives.

  Palate

  Dry and crisp, with a lively, saline character from the flor ageing.

  Finish

  Short to medium, clean and refreshing.

  Serving & Food Pairing

  Serve well chilled at 7-9°C in a sherry glass or white wine glass. Fino pairs perfectly with tapas, almonds, ham and shellfish - and should be enjoyed fresh, ideally soon after opening.

  Lustau Fino En Rama El Puerto 2024 Spring Release Sherry Jerez Spain 50 cl 15%

  Item no.: 2222-55791

  El Puerto de Santa María is the third town of the sherry triangle - less famous than Jerez and Sanlúcar, but with its own microclimate that gives the flor yeast yet another expression to work with.

  Expert's Description

  Lustau Fino En Rama El Puerto 2024 Spring Release is a Sherry from El Puerto de Santa María, Spain made from the Palomino grape, bottled at 15% ABV.

  El Puerto sits on the coast between Jerez and Cádiz, and the town's humid but slightly warmer climate than Sanlúcar gives a Fino with more body and weight than its coastal sibling, while still keeping the sharp, dry character from the flor ageing. As part of Lustau's annual En Rama series, the sherry is bottled straight from the cask without fining or filtration.

  Tasting Notes

  Nose

  Sharp and yeasty, with almond, green apple and a hint of sea air.

  Palate

  Dry and full, with more body than a typical Fino from Jerez.

  Finish

  Medium length, clean and crisp.

  Serving & Food Pairing

  Serve well chilled at 7-9°C in a sherry glass. Pairs with tapas, almonds, ham, shellfish and oily fish like mackerel.

  Did You Know?
